Acro Yoga Foundations with Steve Machalek and Alissa Gamberg Acro Yoga combines the awareness of yoga with the movement and dynamics of acrobatics into a practice that is collaborative, energetic, and fun. It is a great way to build strength, agility, flexibility, and balance while experiencing the freedom to play, explore, and be silly. No experience is needed! No partner is required, bring a friend or make some new ones!
This workshop is appropriate for all levels, including those who are completely new to Acro Yoga. You will learn several fundamental Acro Yoga poses, and ways to link them together in flows. Advanced variations will be offered for more experienced students. In addition, you'll also learn techniques and tips for training to strengthen your practice.
New students will walk away with a solid base of skills from which to grow their Acro practice. Experienced students will get opportunities to refine their existing skills and some advanced variations to play with. All who come will have plenty of fun in this playful practice!

About Your Instructors:
Steve Machalek
Shortly after becoming a Certified Yoga Teacher, Steve Machalek tried Acro Yoga for the first time in 2014 and fell in love with it right away. Since that time, he has traveled all over the country to train with as many Acro Yoga and Acrobatics instructors as possible, and traveled to Thailand to complete his Acro Yoga teaching certification in February 2017. Through collaboration and creativity, he is constantly seeking new shapes to make and flows to execute within his Acro Yoga practice, and enjoys sharing what he learns with others. Known for his patience and calm demeanor, he thoroughly enjoys seeing the joy of his students as they grow in this practice of movement.
Alissa Gamberg
An accomplished performer with a background in stage and song, Alissa is a seasoned yoga teacher who was drawn to Acro Yoga by its artistic style and collaborative nature. After attending her first Acro Yoga training in 2019, she quickly became hooked and has been expanding her practice ever since. Passionate about the Spanish language and culture, she completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training with Rina Jakubowicz in 2016 with a focus on teaching en Espanol. Caring and compassionate for her students, she goes the extra mile to make them feel comfortable and engaged in her teachings.
